Preservative Lubricants and Oils Used to Protect Equipment Products

Abstract

Purpose of research. Analysis of preservation agents for the protection of technical products to determine the direction for the modification of preservation materials.Methods. To achieve this goal, we have reviewed the modern scientific and technical literature in this area. The conservation method using lubricants is used to maintain the stored products in working order and use them as intended,. Lubricants for various purposes are usually subdivided into lubricants, oils and specialty liquids.Results. The currently used preservatives not only fails to provide reliable protection of the materials of products, but in most cases they themselves are power sources for microorganisms, provoking the development of microbiological and corrosive damage. One of the new directions in the modification of preservation materials is the use of alternative sources for modification based on plant origin materials (essential oils). The conducted analysis shows that many of the foreseen means of conservation are not produced for objective reasons, and the use of other means is often ineffective. The solution to this problem is associated with the use of essential oils for modifying existing preservation materials. which should increase their protective properties against the effects of biodegradable microorganisms, and, as a result, create effective protection against corrosion and biological damage. Conclusion. The presented results can be used to create resource-saving processing processes, frictional interaction, storage and preservation of metal systems, taking into account the operating conditions of a particular part for various weather conditions.
